Rhodiola

60 caps

Rhodiola is a remarkable herb with a varied history of uses. It can enhance your physical performance, shorten recovery time between workouts, boost your immune system, favour your intellectual activity, and prevent several diseases.

A long, long time ago… Rhodiola’s history as an accredited medicinal herb is actually thousands of years old, dating back to the Ancient Greeks, who were the first to document the medical applications of the plant. The Vikings also used this herb to enhance their physical strength and endurance, and the Chinese used to call it “the golden root”, using rhodiola in medicinal preparations. Back then, rhodiola was mostly used to treat colds, flu, tuberculosis and cancer.

How can I benefit from taking rhodiola? Rhodiola can reduce stress levels and promote your mental health and well-being. Corroborated by extensive research, rhodiola has long been known as a potent adaptogen. Adaptogens are natural plant substances with the ability to increase the body’s resistance and normalise its functions. At times of intense stress, the consumption of adaptogens generates a degree of generalised adaptation, giving our physiology the necessary tools to handle stressful situations in a more resourceful manner. Clinical studies suggest that adaptogens work by increasing the cells’ ability to manufacture and use cell fuel more efficiently. As a result, adaptogens allow us to fight stress and reduce feelings of irritability, to increase attention span and boost memory, they prevent declines in work performance, sleep disturbances, headaches, and fatigue, and they promote your mood and general well-being.

Rhodiola extract has been shown to increase the level of enzymes, RNA, and proteins important to muscle recovery after intense exercise. It has also demonstrated a positive effect in stimulating muscle energy, glycogen synthesis in muscles and liver, muscle protein synthesis, and anabolic activity. This combination of benefits can not only boost your physical performance and reduce fatigue symptoms while you exercise, but it also shortens your recovery time between workouts.

Comprehensive health boosting effect One of the major benefits of taking rhodiola is its immune system strengthening effect. Due to its ability to normalise hormones, rhodiola stimulates and protects the immune system by reinstating the body’s metabolic balance (homeostasis). At the same time, it increases the natural protective cells in the stomach and spleen, making the immune system stronger and more efficient.

Other studies have also explained how rhodiola can produce a large number of additional health benefits, such as regulating blood sugar levels for diabetics, protecting the liver from environmental toxins, activating the lipolytic process that breaks down fat, and preventing cardiac problems.
